Chapter 342: Monica Baldwin, Never Belongs to Mediocrity

"What happened?" In a quieter spot, Victor quietly asked Monica.

Monica tightens her grip on Victor's sleeve, her eyes look complex as she replies: "I think she wanted to take revenge for Nathaniel. That Director's wife is Nathaniel Hanson's mother. It's obvious that the couple has a good relationship with Master O'Brien."

Moreover, given her status, it's expected for her to be treated this way at these grand occasions. Ultimately, her foundation isn't stable, and she can't produce work worthy of respect yet.

Victor stares intently into Monica's eyes, then he pulls her right hand gently towards him, telling her: "Hold on tight..."

Monica looks down at their clasped hands, finally relaxing a bit.
